Our mission

At Sage & Gray, we believe your home should reflect who you are—and support how you live. We know that hiring a designer is an investment, which is why we’re committed to listening closely, understanding your goals, and designing spaces that not only meet your needs but exceed your expectations.

The story behind Sage & Gray

Sage & Gray was founded in 2024 by Lindsay Mindler, designer and former VP of Design at Pinterest. After over a decade building a career in San Francisco, Lindsay returned to her hometown of Rochester, NY with her husband Andy—a visual artist at S&G.

Not long after their move, Lindsay and Andy had a near-death experience that reframed everything. It became a clarifying moment—reminding them that life is fragile, family is everything, and the spaces we live in deeply shape how we feel, connect, and grow.

With this renewed perspective, Sage & Gray was born—with the belief that home should nurture joy, beauty, and a sense of belonging. Even our name reflects that purpose. “Sage” and “Gray” is a tribute to our children, Kora Sage and Lincoln Gray—a daily reminder of what matters most.

At Sage & Gray, we don’t just design beautiful spaces—we design for what truly lasts: love, connection, and the way a home can bring people closer.
